My question is this, why is everybody demanding an explanation
for the Iraq war when we can all clearly see that it was about Bushco/Halliburton/Oil/War Industry profit? So, we know Chimp is a liar, and so why are we bothering to demand that he "Explain to Cindy" etc when we already know he only lies. Why are we not marching on Washington Sept 24 to demand Impeachment of The Sonofva Bush instead of an end to the war? I mean, of course, we need both, but if we Impeach The Sonofva Bush we will certainly end the war. Of course, we have to also impeach Big Dick Tourettes Chaney, and Condi Sleezy Rice, Rummy, Gonzales the Torturer and perhaps a few others, but so what? We won't have to impeach anybody who doesn't totally deserve it. Just the criminals who have been conniving together at the top. Why aren't we demanding mass impeachment incessantly? Why should Cindy want to talk to The Sonofva Bush again? He is beneath her. Why doesn't Cindy just demand his resignation? Isn't this shit worse than a blow job yet? Damn.

1. We are trying to get Bush to speak like an adult to adults. We know

Iraq was a bad place and there were reasons for going to war in the 1990s. They were not acted upon. God knows they were under sanctions. But WHlied to make it happen..and fear is the tool they use the most often. Different fears for different people they wedge = Different realities. But for Americans in the run up to war..it was all about mushroom clouds. There could be twenty reasons for going to war. They chose the ones that were most effective in causing fear and getting them a unilateral opportunity rather than a UN one which would have imposed procurement laws that favored Iraqis instead of Halliburton.

3. I don't think we are the impeachment police. We are the adults though.
They continue to play the games of adolescents (or sociopaths..who reach post adolescence at around age 60 - if at all).

You may want impeachment. I just wants adults making the decisions. With all the things that come with being an adult - like responsibility, empathy, community, love, neighbors, commitment and sacrifice.

5. He can hide behind the elections he says he won. Impeachment
will not happen. I'm not that hopeful.

8. C'mon now. You know he never won an election. Diebold won't have any
say or sway in impeachment proceedings. What matters more than who you vote for is who counts the votes. Diebold can't count.

9. I believe in vote suppression but not diebold per se. Keep your options
open cause it could be the exit polls that were jerked with for fun. Voter suppression is not convict able. I don't think they would have thought for a second they could steal votes in the machines themselves. By putting two few into place in Democratic districts..for sure. But not everyone believes in diebold. Not fare for you to assume that.

11. you make it sound like believing in Santa. There are undeniable
stats, you need only study them. There is no other way to get 666% voter turnout on Diebold machines in some countines in Ohio. Many a programmer has come forth and admitted to working on codes to count backward on Kerry votes over 50,000 in some counties. The evidence is everywhere, if you take a moment to research it. None are so blind as those who will not see. But of course, believe as you please, I do. This is America.

7. Yes. War crimes have been committed. And treason is reason enough
for impeachment of the whole lot of them.

6. Fine. How do you propose to get "adults" without impeaching the
sociopaths first?

10. I don't know. I don't know. Just so long as most Americans relearn
how to tell what the truth is. That worries me the most. Not my country. Not my vote. So I guess I don't go there.

Ignore me.
